Summary: A fatally flawed variant of applied statistics
Comment: Geostatistics is a fatally flawed variant of applied statistics because it violates the fundamental requirement of functional dependence and ignores the concept of degrees of freedom. Without degrees of freedom unbiased statistical inferences are impossible to obtain.
Rating: 5
Summary: Very good introduction to Geostatistics
Comment: This book is an excellent introduction to the somewhat difficult field of geostatistics. The examples in the book are based on the analysis of a digital elevation model transformed into data variables. This approach works very well and the explanatory text is very readable and understandable. Initially I thought that the math would make difficult reading but I am pleased to be wrong. The basics of Geostatistics can be understood from this book without having to translate the formulae ! An alternative very quick introduction to Geostatistics may be found in Burrough and McDonnell - Principles of Geographical Information Systems pp 132-161. My background is in Geology & GIS.

Summary: Excellent introduction into the field
Comment: This book does an excellent job outlining the theoretical background and applications of geostatistics. After an overview and explanation of a concept (often involving some mathematical notation) the authors drop back and give an "intuitive" approach to the subject that I find incredibly beneficial.
I am a self-taught student of geostats, and this book is my tutor. While I would prefer some formal instruction to augment this text, the text is excellent and a must-read for any student of the field.
